Rare to see hens in a natural environment these days. This is the way it should be and the eggs taste much better when the hen is happy:-)))
Keith and I visited the Bush's Bean Factory and museum in Chestnut Hill, TN. It is literally in the middle of nowhere and was a fun tour -- learned a lot about the history of the company, and of grocery stores, in the tour they gave!

Also nicknamed "Shelt Factory", this strip mill was part of the Usines Métallurgiques de Hainaut-Sambre. The first report we can make about this building is that it's huge! Indeed, the factory looks like an enormous warehouse of about 630 meters long (for around 30 meters wide). Sun beams infiltrate through the roof of this construction located along the railroad.
Here, the steel was refined in billets of steel ready for exportation.
Built in the haste and the euphoria at the end of the 60s, during a post-war period where the growth of the caroloregian steel industry continued to climb, this construction of this site arrived almost at the same time as the recession which was going to mark the last moments of glory of this industry. Besides, the products of this strip mill were already exploited by other companies of the region, so the site did not last long enough to step in front of the competition and eventually closed at the end of the 70s.
The place is today abandoned, and there is no remain of the machinery except for two rusty overhead cranes still suspended at the ceiling and a third one lying on the ground. This emptiness strengthens the sensation of size when we penetrate there. Next to the warehouse, there are still some annexes among which the changing rooms, a machinery room and a gasometer. Unmistakably, this place remembers us the wealth in the region of Charleroi during its era of glory…

Également surnommé "Usine Shelt", ce laminoir des Usines Métallurgiques de Hainaut-Sambre impressionne tout d'abord par sa taille. Le bâtiment se présente en effet sous la forme d'un énorme hangar d'environ 630 mètres de long (pour une trentaine de mètres de large) transpercé par les rayons du soleil. Situé le long de la voie ferrée, cette usine permettait d'affiner l'acier pour en faire des billettes (sortes de poutrelles d'acier de petit et moyen calibres) prêtes à être exportées.
Construit dans l'empressement et l'euphorie à la fin des années 60, pendant une période où la croissance de la sidérurgie carolorégienne de l'après-guerre continuait à grimper, ce site tomba presque nez-à-nez avec la récession qui allait marquer les derniers moments de gloire de cette industrie. Les produits de ce laminoir étant par ailleurs déjà exploités par d'autres entreprises de la région, le site ne fit pas long feu face à la concurrence et ferma à la fin des années 70.
Le lieu étant aujourd'hui à l'abandon, plus une seule machinerie ne s'y trouve à part les restes rouillés de deux ponts roulants encore suspendus au plafond (et un troisième au sol), ce qui renforce la sensation de grandeur lorsqu'on y pénètre. On retrouve à côté quelques bâtiments annexes (vestiaires, salles des machines, gazomètre…). Un lieu dont la taille nous évoque indéniablement la richesse de l'ère de l'industrie sidérurgique du bassin de Charleroi…

This mill was built in 1868 on land which was purchased from Rawdon Baptist Church.
A clothier who lived in Little London, Thomas Pratt, was the owner.
Cloth was produced here until 1906 when a terrible fire gutted most of the building. Scribbling and spinning machinery was lost but the weaving shed was not too badly damaged, the cost of the damage was £20,000.
It left 300 workers without a job.
The mill was rebuilt and became a dyehouse for Naylor, Jennings &Co then part of the Vyella Group. (Aireborough Historical Society)

WUH561K started and finished it's life in Coventry as it was built at the Daimler factory in the City during 1971.
Factory worker sam,
he hated his job
the shop floor
was
loud
cold
and cruel
he hated his manager even more than the job
about the only thing kept him going
was his braces.

Da più di un decennio abbiamo smesso di posarli sul piatto e ascoltarli, eppure godono ancora di ottima salute.
Sono gli LP o 33 giri, icona vintage e simbolo della club culture. Ora i dischi in vinile diventano i protagonisti di Vinyl Factory, la mostra collettiva legata a un bando internazionale che la MondoPOP International Gallery di Roma ha lanciato sul web due mesi fa, aperto a tutti gli urban artist del mondo.
Sono arrivati più di 500 vinili dipinti da artisti famosi, famosissimi e anche meno noti e la grande esposizione di queste opere avrà due “lati”, proprio come il disco in vinile a cui è dedicata.
Il LATO A di Vinyl Factory aprirà i battenti il prossimo 21 marzo in galleria, alla MondoPOP International Gallery a Roma e prevede in mostra più di 500 vinili.
Il LATO B sarà al Rising Love, sede della club culture della capitale, dove si inaugura domenica 22 marzo dalle ore 19 fino a tarda notte, con un party esclusivo, ricco di performance, musica live e, ovviamente, di 4 DJ eccezionali ai piatti.
Con l’ingresso anche il catalogo della mostra.
Accanto ai vinili realizzati da importanti artisti internazionali e italiani tra cui Jeremyville, Jon Burgerman, Jim Avignon, Christian Lindemann, Ciou, Andras Bartos, Diavù, Ozmo, Dem, Sten & Lex, AlePOP, Massimo Giacon, Scarful, Serpeinseno, Cesko, Zelda Bomba e tantissimi altri, vedremo esposte le opere di tutta la nuova scena della Urban Art internazionale
Gli uni e gli altri uniti da un unico filo conduttore: esaltare la propria creatività e annullare gli apparenti limiti di un disco di nero vinile di appena 12 pollici.
In più i DJ più importanti della scena romana, stavolta alle prese con pennarelli, pennelli e bombolette ci regaleranno per la serata del 22 marzo al Rising Love i loro vinili, interpretati graficamente da loro stessi.
L’esposizione continuerà in entrambe le sedi di VINYL FACTORY, fino a venerdì 24 aprile 2009 a MondoPOP e fino a domenica 19 aprile al Rising Love.

Old Hemp Factory, used to work on water power. It used to make ropes and textile. Before the Second World War Edessa was called "Manchester of the east" because of it's textile industry. The Germans destroyed most of the industry in the war. After the war water power was not important anymore and the industry languished.
Deze hennepfabriek werkte op waterkracht en fabriceerde textiel en touw. Voor de Tweede Wereldoorlog werd Edessa wel het "Manchester van het oosten" genoemd, vanwege deze industrie (in Nederlandse termen wellicht het Twente van Griekenland). Tijdens de Duitse bezetting werd een flink deel van de stad vernietigd, inclusief de fabrieken. Na de Tweede Wereldoorlog nam de betekenis van waterkracht af en de industrie kwijnde weg. De fabriekshal op de foto is deels een café restaurant geworden, in het grootste deel van de fabriekshal staan de oude machines nog (weer?) opgesteld. Het heeft een museale functie en is vrij te bezoeken. Ik vond het een absolute aanrader, maar dat kan je ook wel zien aan de hoeveelheid gemaakte foto's!
Jellybeans have to be left out like this for a couple of days at a time as part of the jellybean making process. The tour guide mentioned why, but I was too busy waiting for that robot in the background to make eye contact with me to notice he was speaking.
Title: Nicholson File Company Managers

Description: B&W photograph of Nicholson File Co. managers taken in front of the Cavan Street factory, c. 1902. Third from left: Henry Charles Bailey.
History: G. Outram & Sons proposed in 1888 the development of a metal file factory in Port Hope that would employ 50 men. The factory, originally called the Globe File Manufacturing Company ran off the power of the Ganaraska river near Dr. Corbett's electrical company. It continued in operation well into the 20th Century as the Nicholson File Factory, on Cavan St.

This is the Boot Factory, part of the Industrial Zone near the airport in Micropolis. Its dark tan, black and grey colour scheme, along with trans black windows seemed suitably drab for such a building. Ref: D1642-053
SALERNO DAL 13 AL 29 MAGGIO
EX FABBRICA SALID
PARCO DELL'IRNO
---------
ROMA DAL 16 GIUGNO AL 10 SETTEMBRE 2011
GALLERIA WUNDERKAMMERN
----------
Presente e passato, arte contemporanea e tradizione antica si incontrano nella II edizione di Lumen - Urban Factory, l’evento di apertura di Salerno Porte Aperte 2011 in programma dal 13 al 29 maggio presso le ex Fabbriche Salid nel Parco dell’Irno. Dopo il riscontro registrato lo scorso anno dalla prima edizione presso il Complesso Monumentale di Santa Sofia, Lumen, organizzato dall’Associazione Lumen Project con il sostegno del Comune di Salerno, si ripropone alla città con una nuova location, mantenendo salda la filosofia alla base dell’operazione: spingere gli artisti della scena urbana contemporanea a confrontarsi con concetti e supporti creativi lontani da quello che è il loro tradizionale modo di operare. La reason why è quella di presentare in un contenitore tangibile esponenti della “outsider art”, con particolare predilezione alle correnti “urban”, “street” e “low-brow”. Una singolare réunion che sarà visitabile presso le ex Fabbriche di laterizi immerse nel Parco Urbano dell’Irno, stabili industriali degli anni ‘50, recentemente restaurati e convertiti a location polifunzionale. Diverse le mostre: il Vecchio Mulino ospiterà le 40 opere racchiuse nel concept “Arte Contemporanea in Controluce”, mentre nella Urban Factory, 20 i più affermati artisti della scena italiana ed internazionale saranno invitati a confrontarsi nella creazione di opere esclusive. Ad integrare la proposta artistica, il contest fotografico sul tema della sostenibilità aperto a tutti i creativi, la possibilità per gli studenti del Liceo Artistico Sabatini, Istituto d’Arte Menna, e Università degli Studi Salerno di partecipare a diversi workshop di approfondimento e un fitto cartellone di entertainment che, dal mercoledì alla domenica, terrà compagnia ai visitatori con aperitivi in musica, ospiti e dj set. L’ingresso è gratuito. Partner culturale la Galleria Wunderkammern di Roma che dal prossimo 16 giugno al 10 settembre ospiterà l’evento made in Salerno presso i propri spazi.

In 1969, the Central Committee of the CPSU and Ministerial council of the USSR decided to begin construction of factories for the manufacture of supersized cars in the city of Naberezhnye Chelny.
Construction actually began on 13 December 1969, but the first Kamaz rolled off the main assembly conveyor on 16 February 1976.
In 1987, the line for the manufacture of Oka midget cars (VAZ-1111) was created. The first car rolled out on 21 December 1987.
On 25 June 1990, the production association was transformed into an open joint-stock company.
